I tripped over a chair yesterday. I stubbed my toe the day before. I head butted the cupboard about five minutes ago. I’ve broken all my fingers (I don’t even remember how I did that.) I hammered my thumb like a rite of passage. I choked on a sweet aged five. I nearly drowned in the bath at one point. I yelled at my mother once. That is the only time I ever feared for my life!
